    tea lady could play left back, lets get the ammunition sorted first COYR !!!!
    I'd heard Gunter was able to play in several positions - but didn't realise it was also his job to make the tea.


    i've offered to do it

    S Henderson coming back as backup goalkeeper allowing MB to go out on loan. Only a rumour  
    My only concern about this is that he hasn't played a first team game for two years and the season before that he only had  3  games at Wycombe on an emergency loan. 
  • edited August 2021
  • Stephen Henderson isn't going to sign for us to sit on the bench. He'll get a Prem No3 or Champ No2 gig on much better money. 
    He wouldn't be a clear number 2 though would he?   If its true.  Not a priority but I always feel like the number 1 plays better when you have a proper number 2.  It would have been very brave to drop Amos for AMB. 
  • i find it very encouraging - i was getting worried about saturday after somebody's post yesterday but that article has reassured me
  • Yes the final squad won’t be in place until Sept.

    But you do all realise there are 5 games before then? I would rather not throw 5 games - and whilst we could feasibly bring in the 5-6 top league one players we need on 31st August, I wouldn’t be that confident that we will then go on such a tear up of the division that we can give the rest of the league a 5 game head start.
    I love the idea that we're just sitting ducks for our first 5 games unless we some players now now now. We started last season with a backline made up of a centre mid, a 17 year old CB at RB and Oshilaja, with zero other defenders on the bench and more court appearances than senior left backs and we still only lost 2 of our first 5 games. The idea that we're throwing the first 5 games with a starting 11 including a new goalkeeper, two new midfielders, a new CB and a marquee signing up front is such bed wetting overkill I think you've gone through and wet a child's bed in Australia
    How much did we miss out on play-offs by again?

    Why not? Actually no he wouldn't, a Number 2 needs to be fit enough to sit on the bench, Henderson would just be keeping the physios busy.

    But that would be a waste your talent though.

    Remember you're the best midfielder never to have played for Charlton. :smile:

    I know. Life's so unfair.


  • The 54 games Henderson played for us is the most he's played for anyone...

    I’d missed that Wednesday received a suspended six-point deduction. If they have any problems paying wages between now and January, they’ll get the deduction. 
  • Matthews is a more than adequate L1 full back (with Gunter), far more pressing areas within the squad
    I like Matthews  , he had good season when we were last in the Championship. Injuries hampered him last season , as did Bowyer's team selections.  Has shown glimpses of quality in the PSF's .
    Matthews proved in the Championship season that he needs a run of games to get up to his consistent levels of performance he showed, so Bowyer making a million changes and not letting him have a consistent run in the side hampered his form.

    Think he improved when NA came in and stuck with him in a relatively settled side. He'll be fine for us this season!

    That would be interesting, where’s that come from?

    How many points did we drop after those first 5 games? It’s that bad run in the middle that killed us, so many opportunities to pick up points wasted.

    A dropped point is a dropped point. You don't lose extra points for dropping them in the middle of the season.

    Was that recored before Martin went to Swansea? 
  • Sad to see more problems being caused by another agent.

    Just to confirm we lost out on playoffs by a Lee Bowyer mood change.

    Being harsh on Rocket Ronnie, possibly by a missed penalty against Oxford in the 94th minute.
  • Lowery would be an excellent move , although I have a suspicion he'd want to follow Wintle and Ng to the Championship
